## Written prayer

Lord, Your grace and Your forgiveness never ceases to amaze me and no other story displays this more than the one that You shared about the prodigal son in Matthew 18:12–14. Through the reading of this text I am mesmerized by how even with the foolish decisions that were made, the Father never left his position of searching. May this bring comfort to my soul in knowing that no matter what mistakes I make that You are always searching for me. When I feel that I have blown and squandered my inheritance I praise You because You have more in store for me as I come to You with a humble and broken heart. When others seek to keep me in the pig pen of life, I praise You that You will clothe me with honor, You’ll restore power back to me through Your ring of authority, and You will seat me at the table of greatness again. All that You have is mine so I will make sure not to be jealous when I see others get restored back to their place of opulence and abundance, because what is Yours Father is also mine, because I too am a child of God. I was lost but through Your love Jesus I am found!

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
